Preparation steps
- heat olive oil in a large pot and sauté onion, celery, and carrot for about 5 min until softened
- add thyme, bay leaves, and parsley and cover with water; bring to the boil then simmer gently for 30 min
- boil broad beans for 1 min, then drain and refresh under cold water
- skin the broad beans by pressing to pop out the beans; discard skins
- pass the stock through a sieve into a saucepan and discard vegetables and flavourings
- add rice to the sieved stock and simmer covered for 20 min
- add half the skinned broad beans and some salt and white pepper, then blitz until completely smooth
- whisk together yoghurt, garlic, and egg in a heatproof bowl
- temper the yoghurt by gradually whisking in a ladleful of the hot soup until mixed in at least half; add slowly to avoid splitting
- pour the tempered yoghurt into the soup, then warm on medium heat while stirring constantly; do not let it boil
- taste and add more salt and white pepper if you like
- ladle the soup into four shallow bowls and drop in the remaining broad beans
- garnish generously with dill, chervil, and lemon zest and drizzle with remaining olive oil; add lemon juice if you like
